Tours in Turkey

An excellent Mediterranean climate, kilometres of unspoilt beaches, mountains, lakes, fascinating towns and villages, and a treasure house of historic and archaeological sites... Turkey holidays are filled with adventure. The places we visit are world-renowned: Istanbul, Ephesus, Cappadocia, Gallipoli and Troy, and each has an undisputed place in world history.

Rightly touted as a country of wonderful beaches and coastline, Turkey is also home to untouched mountains and lakes. In the phenomenon of Pamukkale's limestone ‘cotton castles’ and Cappadocia’s strange geological formations, nature displays its penchant for the beautiful and bizarre. Less well known, perhaps, is that Turkish food is rated as one of the world's great cuisines, but without doubt some of the best memories on Turkey tours will come from contact with the local population, who are renowned for their charm, hospitality and friendliness.

Activities in Turkey

Highlights of Turkey trips

1. Explore Istanbul: The Hippodrome, Topkapi Palace, Blue Mosque and covered Grand Bazaar are all monuments to the glory of the Ottoman Empire, but these days you can also polish off your sightseeing with a cocktail and all-night partying at trendy downtown clubs.

2. Discover Cappadocia: The soft volcanic rock around Cappadocia has created a fantasy landscape of lunar curves and eerie ‘fairy chimneys’. Head underground to uncover entire cities and intricately frescoed churches carved into the rock.

6. Turkey on two wheels: Different and just that bit more dynamic, a road tour of Turkey can take you from the stunning beaches and archaeological sites of the coast high up into the hills where traditional Turkey is all around.

Overall, the trip was wonderful! It was my first time doing a trip where we covered so many...
